dude how many times have there been threads like this? The second one said it was like steel so I suppose you should get that, but it said currently unavailable, so I dunno.

i just called for the 2nd one and there discontinued. so idk

2nd one is obviously stronger in case it's not very thin steel (i managed to bent Egon's v2 double-nosed skis because they were too thin). First one looks pretty smooth though but i guess i wouldn't use it in extreme way.

 

[Lil Steve]

so i should look into the 2nd one madis?

 

[tjespo22]

the 2nd ones are nice but they dont carry them anymore... i called ski skoot and they dont have them in stock.

I'm making one a the moment. Wood core, 2000 grade sintered base, fiberglass reinforcement. I'm going all out on them. If you would like to build your own I can send you some plans for the mold and where to buy everything, but it is a lot of work...

As for your question the second link is not available, so buy the first. They may seem more weak but they have more surface area. You could reinforce them with fiberglass if they feel too week when you get them.

Oh yeah, but in the picture the 2 pieces that connect to the rear ski go out straight. However, the one's on an old a deck go up, so the back ski may hit the deck and not lie flat?

thats what i mean

it think the yellow one is the best choice it seem strong and shorter then the red one which means it probably easier to turn
